According to the initial release from the OPP, the indecent assault charge is for an alleged incident that took place between June 1, 1973, and Sept. 1, 1974, in the Township of Addington Highlands. The sexual assault charge involves a different victim and allegedly took place in 1997 in the City of Kingston.

The Joynt family served as billets for 33 years for hockey players from the Frontenacs/Canadians.

Their final billet stayed in their home in 2004.

Joynt has been widely praised by many of the players for his guidance, a number of whom have moved on to the NHL, including Tony McKegney – Joynt's first billet – and Drake Berehowsky.

Former NHLer Eric Lindros, formed a strong friendship with Joynt as he visited his younger brother Brett, who played for the Frontenacs before being drafted to the NHL, and has regularly returned to visit the family.
